There is a summer 2019 research internship opportunity. The project involves aspects of research design and human factors psychology principles as well as virtual environments, educational games, simulations, and engineering design and manufacturing. Please see link below for application information.

If you are interested in applying for this summer position, please send a cover letter and a resume to Dr. Faisal Aqlan (fua11@psu.edu).

I just made an application for the website manager position. I am interested in having several students (three or so) working on the website. If you know of any students who would be interested, either I can send them the form or you are free to. I would also like to try to stop into some comp sci, website design, or other similar classes to promote this.

1. The Laboratory of Developmental Neuroscience at Penn State is currently seeking artists, programmers, audio specialists, game designers and producers for a cutting edge project developing an original computer game at Penn State.

2. Dr. Aqlan has a position for an undergraduate student to do an NSF funded research on developing a website for manufacturing simulations and games. The student needs to have good programming and web development skills.

Dr. Faisal Aqlan, assistant professor of industrial engineering, is looking for a student researcher to join his research project. This is a paid student research position starting January 2018, and could continue in the summer. The student would be responsible for developing video games and simulations for the manufacturing systems that include machines, products, people, etc. If you are interested and would like to be considered for the position, email your résumé to:

There will be a celebration event for Behrend Computer Science’s official ABET accreditation on Thursday, October 12. The ceremony will begin at 5PM in Burke auditorium B-180. Students, alumni, faculty and staff, as well as community and media members, are invited.

Matt Stanton, senior Vice President of Libria and one of our first computer science graduates in 2005, will give a keynote speech “Building Your Road-map.” He will talk about how his experiences at Penn State enabled his career path, what companies look for in recruiting, and his outlook on the tech market.

Additionally, there will be a internship panel consisting of current CSSE students. They will share their perspectives on the internship process and how their experiences have impacted their undergraduate academic and career development.

Immediately following the panel discussion, there will be a reception with food and drinks in the foyer part of the auditorium. A flyer for this event made by Dr. Richard Zhao is attached. Please let me know if you have any questions. We look forward to seeing you there!
